Is America’s Cultural Glue Weakening?

by David C Rose

“America is a nation of immigrants who had very different ideas about all sorts of things, but no group was able to impose its culture on the others to a significant degree. We naturally presume this produced a melting pot that united us by creating a new alloy out of many different metals. But the real key to America’s success was not uniting us by homogenizing us. It was the emergence of a uniquely American culture that held us together through shared moral beliefs and principles, while allowing us to retain our personal individuality. … But America’s cultural glue, which makes all of this possible, is weakening.” (09/04/24)
